About: This campground is located about one mile west of the Stub Creek Ranger Station on County Road 99. It is adjacent to Jinks Creek. This campground was situated in a mature lodgepole pine forest but recent mountain pine beetle activity has led to significant mortality and the cutting of the dead trees. Each site contains a tent pad, fire grate, and picnic table. There are restrooms but no drinking water. All campsites are available on a first-come, first-served basis. This area provides opportunities for fishing, hiking, hunting, four-wheel driving, and wildlife viewing.
